I have never heard that?? Everything I have read shows the index rings were designed around the different Campy derailleurs and the number of speeds. Campy shows a spread sheet like below but they are primarily concerned with derailleur type, speeds and what chains work best with which freewheels; nothing about index rings being freewheel specific..
